1 “It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.” ― Lou Holtz
Think about life as one big load of things, you have emotions and you have physical portions of life. One can take a logical and realistic ride to carry the load one way or allow emotions to lead your path. Learn to carry your load with logic and reasoning skills as a means to survive each moment that arrives.
2 “Of course motivation is not permanent. But then, neither is bathing; but it is something you should do on a regular basis.” ― Zig Ziglar, Raising Positive Kids in a Negative World
It is very true that one needs a bath or shower frequently as a means to remain clean, so why not learn to motivate yourself every day by reading quotes or talking to someone who motivates you. Practicing motivation techniques every day will lead you to succeed in life.
3 “The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing. ” ― Walt Disney Company
Just as one would tell you to face your fears, that’s the same with finding motivation. Take a moment and just get started on your day, don’t look back and don’t overthink. In order to make something happen you must first begin doing.
4 “You must give everything to make your life as beautiful as the dreams that dance in your imagination.” ― Roman Payne
Our imaginations can take us many places, but it’s our own thoughts as well as actions I life that allow those visions to become reality. Learn to give everything every day and one day you will wake up realizing motivation comes second nature to you.

Remember that life is difficult for everyone, success doesn’t happen overnight and neither will change. Wake up each day to practice motivation techniques and soon you will see a whole new life. Trust in your vision, believe deep in your soul that you will achieve great things.
6 “Ability is what you’re capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” ― Lou Holtz
We are all able to do certain things and we can think certain ways; but it’s motivation that keeps us waking up each day to breath and live another day. Allow the motivation that is deep within your soul to shine, every day!
7 “It is not a daily increase, but a daily decrease. Hack away at the inessentials.” ― Bruce Lee
Take each moment as a win, you woke up today – it’s a win! Learn to focus your mind on what you have decreased in life. Learn to remove anything that is decreasing your motivation that isn’t essential to your daily life; take one thing at a time and before you know it, you will be motivated to keep going!
8 “It’s not that some people have willpower and some don’t… It’s that some people are ready to change and others are not.” ― James Gordon
The key to having motivation in life is to be ready to change; no one can have motivation or make an adjustment in life until they are actually ready. Today start to adjust your mind to be ready, learn to find that willpower within the change the day.
9 “The road to success is always under construction” ― Lily Tomlin
Remembering that life is always under construction, not just the road to success may help to motivate you. Nothing in life is ever final and things can change constantly. You will have bad and good days, hang on tight and know the road is bumpy but not impossible.
10 “Face reality as it is, not as it was or as you wish it to be.” ― Jack Welch
Today try to face the world with your logical and reasoning side of the brain; do not allow any emotions to get in your path to having a motivated life. Each day wake up ready to take on anything that is tossed at you, and don’t give up if today doesn’t go as planned. Try again tomorrow.
I hope they helped you feel a bit more positive about the day – what is your favourite quote?
Wow, a lot of inspirational quotes in just one place! My favorite would be Bruce Lee’s, I tend to be weak with what it’s pointing out and and it’s been a great help setting my priorities.
My favorite out of the 10 quotes is “All great achievements require time.” I sometimes forget this. I should print it out and hang it on my wall as a daily reminder.
I could have just stopped at the one about it is not the weight of the load but how you carry it. That is it right there!
Those are such wonderful quotes. It can be hard at times to be motivated. I think quotes are a great way to get you motivated as well.
Lily’s quote is my most favorite! “The road to success is always under construction”. There is never an easy road, but that is what makes it so exciting!
I so love reading motivation quotes. They put me in such a good mood for the entire day. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I think the Bruce Lee quote touched me the most, as I see it applying more to my life at this moment. Secondly, I enjoyed Lily Tomlin’s quote…it’s something we should all remember.
It’s been a year now for us. I’m ready. The steps to change are so frustrating and so slow. Keeping on…until I reach my goals.
I love this quotes. I will print this out to keep me motivated and reminds me how beautiful life is.
Oh, I like most #3, we should all learn how to do it rather than keep talking about it! These are all great motivations.
Wow simply amazing. I am very motivated thanks to you. I would probably use this most of the time now.
These are great! Sometimes someone else’s words really help hit the spot, and a little inspiration can go a long way to remind us to keep pressing forward.
It really can, can’t it – it is amazing what a difference they can make x
